Strega Alberti Araldi allo Strega are traditional Italian chocolate-covered nougat confections filled with sponge cake soaked in Liquore Strega. Produced in Benevento, Italy, these indulgent sweets combine the rich flavor of dark chocolate with tender sponge cake, honey nougat and the aromatic herbal notes of Strega liqueur.
A Specialty from Benevento
Araldi allo Strega brings together several of Alberti's best-known confectionery traditions in one treat. The historic company, founded in Benevento in 1860, is celebrated for its Italian nougats, chocolates and the distinctive yellow herbal liqueur known as Strega.
Each Araldi confection features a layer of sponge cake infused with Liquore Strega, enclosed between thin layers of traditional torrone and finished with dark chocolate.
Layers of Nougat, Sponge Cake and Chocolate
Alberti's recipe includes 8% sponge cake soaked with 6% Liquore Strega and a dark chocolate coating that makes up 45% of the product. The combination creates a contrast between tender cake, sweet nougat and rich chocolate.
Hazelnuts and honey bring familiar Italian torrone flavors, while Strega liqueur adds the fragrant character that makes these confections particularly distinctive.
How to Enjoy
Serve Araldi with espresso or as a small dessert after a meal. The individually sized confections are also well suited to sharing or including in an Italian sweets assortment.
